Unaudited
1.Basis of Presentation
Basis of Presentation:
The accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included herein have been prepared by Plexus Corp. and its subsidiaries (together “Plexus” or the “Company”) without audit and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the United States (“U.S.”) Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements reflect all adjustments, which include normal recurring adjustments necessary for the fair statement of the condensed consolidated financial position of the Company as of January 1,December 31, 2022 and October 2, 2021,1, 2022, the results of operations and shareholders' equity for the three months ended January 1,December 31, 2022 and January 2, 2021,1, 2022, and the cash flows for the same three month periods.
The Company’s fiscal year ends on the Saturday closest to September 30. The Company uses a “4-4-5” weekly accounting system for the interim periods in each quarter. Each quarter, therefore, ends on a Saturday at the end of the 4-4-5 period. Periodically, an additional week must be added to the fiscal year to re-align with the Saturday closest to September 30. All fiscal quarters presented herein included 13 weeks.
Certain information and footnote disclosures, normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP"), have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the SEC’s rules and regulations dealing with interim financial statements. However, the Company believes that the disclosures made in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included herein are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. It is suggested that these Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s 20212022 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
The preparation of financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and notes thereto. The full extent to which the COVID-19 outbreak will impact the Company's business and operating results will depend on future developments that are highly uncertain and cannot be accurately predicted. The Company has considered information available as of the date of issuance of these financial statements and is not aware of any specific events or circumstances that would require an update to its estimates or judgments, or a revision of the carrying value of its assets or liabilities. These estimates may change as new events occur and additional information becomes available. Actual results could differ materially from these estimates.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted:
In September 2022, the FASB issued ASU 2022-04, which requires enhanced disclosures about supplier finance programs. The guidance is effective for the Company beginning in the first quarter of fiscal 2024. Early adoption is permitted. The Company believesis currently in the process of assessing the impacts of the guidance.
The Company does not believe that noany other recently issued accounting standards will have a material impact on its Consolidated Financial Statements, or apply to its operations.

On June 15, 2018, the Company entered into a Note Purchase Agreement (the “2018 NPA”) pursuant to which it issued an aggregate of $150.0 million in principal amount of unsecured senior notes, consisting of $100.0 million in principal amount of 4.05% Series A Senior Notes, due on June 15, 2025, and $50.0 million in principal amount of 4.22% Series B Senior Notes, due on June 15, 2028 (collectively, the “2018 Notes”), in a private placement. The 2018 NPA includes customary operational and financial covenants with which the Company is required to comply, including, among others, maintenance of certain financial ratios such as a total leverage ratio and a minimum interest coverage ratio. The 2018 Notes may be prepaid in whole or in part at any time, subject to payment of a make-whole amount; interest on the 2018 Notes is payable semiannually. As of January 1,December 31, 2022, the Company was in compliance with covenants for all debt agreements.
During the covenantsthree months ended December 31, 2022, the highest daily borrowing under the 2018 NPA.
On May 15, 2019, the Company refinanced its then-existing senior unsecured revolving credit facility by entering into a newCompany's 5-year senior unsecured revolving credit facility (referred to as the "Credit Facility"), which expanded the maximum commitment from $300.0 million to $350.0 million and extended the maturity from July 5, 2021 to May 15, 2024. The maximum commitment under the Credit Facility may be further increased to $600.0 million, generally by mutual agreement of the Company and the lenders, subject to certain customary conditions. During the three months ended January 1, 2022, the highest daily borrowing was $186.0$394.0 million; the average daily borrowings were $117.9$320.9 million. The Company borrowed $181.0 million and repaid $96.0 million of revolving borrowings ("revolving commitment") under the Credit Facility during the three months ended January 1, 2022. As of January 1, 2022, the Company was in compliance with all financial covenants relating to the Credit Facility, which are generally consistent with those in the 2018 NPA discussed above.

If measured at fair value in the financial statements, the Company's debt would be classified as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy. Refer to Note 4, "Derivatives and Fair Value Measurements," for further information regarding the Company's fair value calculations and classifications.
4. Derivatives and Fair Value Measurements
All derivatives are recognized in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets at their estimated fair value. The Company uses derivatives to manage the variability of foreign currency obligations. The Company has cash flow hedges related to forecasted foreign currency obligations, in addition to non-designated hedges to manage foreign currency exposures associated with certain foreign currency denominated assets and liabilities. The Company does not enter into derivatives for speculative purposes.
The Company designates some foreign currency exchange contracts as cash flow hedges of forecasted foreign currency expenses. Changes in the fair value of the derivatives that qualify as cash flow hedges are recorded in "Accumulated other comprehensive loss" in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets until earnings are affected by the variability of the cash flows. In the next twelve months, the Company estimates that $0.2$2.4 million of unrealized gains, net of tax, related to cash flow hedges will be reclassified from other comprehensive income (loss) income into earnings. Changes in the fair value of the non-designated derivatives related to recognized foreign currency denominated assets and liabilities are recorded in "Miscellaneous, net" in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income.
The Company enters into forward currency exchange contracts for its operations in Malaysiacertain jurisdictions in the AMER and MexicoAPAC segments on a rolling basis. The Company had cash flow hedges outstanding with a notional value of $117.9$148.7 million as of January 1,December 31, 2022, and a notional value of $107.4$143.2 million as of October 2, 2021.1, 2022. These forward currency contracts fix the exchange rates for the settlement of future foreign currency obligations that have yet to be realized. The total fair value of the forward currency exchange contracts was a $0.2$2.4 million asset as of January 1,December 31, 2022, and a $1.0$6.0 million liability as of October 2, 2021.1, 2022.
The Company had additional forward currency exchange contracts outstanding as of January 1,December 31, 2022, with a notional value of $32.3$113.5 million; there were $38.6$60.1 million such contracts outstanding as of October 2, 2021.1, 2022. The Company did not designate these derivative instruments as hedging instruments. The net settlement amount (fair value) related to these contracts is recorded on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as either a current or long-term asset or liability, depending on the term, and as an element of "Miscellaneous, net" in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive income.Income. The total fair value of these derivatives was a $0.1$1.0 million asset as of January 1,December 31, 2022, and a $0.2$0.3 million liabilityasset as of October 2, 2021.1, 2022.

Fair Value Measurements:
Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (or exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. Valuation techniques used to measure fair value must maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. The Company uses quoted market prices when available or discounted cash flows to calculate
fair value. The accounting guidance establishes a fair value hierarchy based on three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value. The input levels are:
Level 1: Quoted (observable) market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2: Inputs other than Level 1 that are observable, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the asset or liability.
Level 3: Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the asset or liability.
The following table lists the fair values of assets of the Company’s derivatives as of January 1,December 31, 2022 and October 2, 2021,1, 2022, by input level:

The fair value of foreign currency forward contracts is determined using a market approach, which includes obtaining directly or indirectly observable values from third parties active in the relevant markets. Inputs in the fair value of the foreign currency forward contracts include prevailing forward and spot prices for currency.
5. Income Taxes
Income tax expense for the three months ended January 1,December 31, 2022 was $3.4$7.2 million compared to $5.4$3.4 million for the three months ended January 2, 2021.1, 2022.
The effective tax rates for the three months ended December 31, 2022 and January 1, 2022 were 14.7% and January 2, 2021 were 12.5% and 13.1%, respectively. The effective tax rate for the three months ended January 1,December 31, 2022 decreasedincreased from the effective tax rate for the three months ended January 2, 20211, 2022 primarily due to additional discrete tax benefits of $0.6 million partially offset by a change in the geographic distribution of pre-tax book income.
The amount of unrecognized tax benefits recorded for uncertain tax positions increased by $0.5$0.9 million for the three months ended January 1,December 31, 2022. The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties on uncertain tax positions as a component of income tax expense. The amount of interest and penalties recorded for the three months ended January 1,December 31, 2022 was not material.
One or more uncertain tax positions may be settled within the next 12 months. Settlement of these matters is not expected to have a material effect on the Company's consolidated results of operations, financial position and cash flows. The Company is not currently under examination by taxing authorities in the U.S. The Company is under audit in a foreign jurisdiction but a settlement is not expected to have a material impact.
The Company maintains valuation allowances when it is more likely than not that all or a portion of a net deferred tax asset will not be realized. During the three months ended January 1,December 31, 2022, the Company continued to record a full valuation allowance against its net deferred tax assets in certain jurisdictions within the EMEA segment and a partial valuation against its net deferred tax assets in certain jurisdictions within the AMER segment, as it was more likely than not that these assets would not be fully realized based primarily on historical performance. The Company will continue to provide a valuation allowance against its net deferred tax assets in each of the applicable jurisdictions going forward until it determines it is more likely than not that the deferred tax assets will be realized.

8. Share-Based Compensation
The Company recognized $6.3$5.8 million and $5.3$6.3 million of compensation expense associated with share-based awards for the three months ended December 31, 2022 and January 1, 2022, and January 2, 2021, respectively.
Performance stock units ("PSUs") are payable in shares of the Company's common stock. For PSUs issued in fiscal year 2020 and earlier, the PSUs vest based on the relative total shareholder return ("TSR") of the Company's common stock as compared to the companies in the Russell 3000 index, a market condition, and the Company's economic return performance during the performance period of three years, a performance condition. In the first quarter of fiscal 2021, the Company updated the market condition for PSUs based on TSR to the S&P 400 index for all future PSU grants, including those granted in fiscal year 2021. The Company uses the Monte Carlo valuation model to determine the fair value of PSUs at the date of grant for PSUs that vest based on the relative TSR of the Company's common stock. The Company uses its stock price on grant date as the fair value assigned to PSUs that vest based on the Company's economic return performance. The number of shares that may be issued pursuant to PSUs ranges from zero to 0.5 million and is dependent upon the Company's TSR and economic return performance over the applicable performance periods.
The Company recognizes share-based compensation expense over the share-based awards' vesting period.
9. Litigation
The Company is party to lawsuits in the ordinary course of business. Management does not believe that these proceedings, individually or in the aggregate, will have a material positive or adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
10. Reportable Segments
Reportable segments are defined as components of an enterprise about which separate financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker, or group, in assessing performance and allocating resources. The Company uses an internal management reporting system, which provides important financial data to evaluate performance and allocate the Company’s resources on a regional basis. Net sales for the segments are attributed to the region in which the product is manufactured or the service is performed. The services provided, manufacturing processes used, class of customers serviced and order fulfillment processes used are similar and generally interchangeable across the segments. A segment’s performance is evaluated based upon its operating income (loss). A segment’s operating income (loss) includes its net sales less cost of sales and selling and administrative expenses, but excludes corporate and other expenses. Corporate and other expenses primarily represent corporate selling and administrative expenses, and restructuring costs and other charges, if any. These costs are not allocated to the segments, as management excludes such costs when assessing the performance of the segments. Inter-segment transactions are generally recorded at amounts that approximate arm’s length transactions. The accounting policies for the segments are the same as for the Company taken as a whole.

11. Guarantees
The Company offers certain indemnifications under its customer manufacturing agreements. In the normal course of business, the Company may from time to time be obligated to indemnify its customers or its customers’ customers against damages or liabilities arising out of the Company’s negligence, misconduct, breach of contract, or infringement of third-party intellectual property rights. Certain agreements have extended broader indemnification, and while most agreements have contractual limits, some do not. However, the Company generally does not provide for such indemnities and seeks indemnification from its customers for damages or liabilities arising out of the Company’s adherence to customers’ specifications or designs or use of materials furnished, or directed to be used, by its customers. The Company does not believe its obligations under such indemnities are material.
In the normal course of business, the Company also provides its customers a limited warranty covering workmanship, and in some cases materials, on products manufactured by the Company. Such warranty generally provides that products will be free from defects in the Company’s workmanship and meet mutually agreed-upon specifications for periods generally ranging from 12 months to 24 months. The Company’s obligation is generally limited to correcting, at its expense, any defect by repairing or replacing such defective product. The Company’s warranty generally excludes defects resulting from faulty customer-supplied components, design defects or damage caused by any party or cause other than the Company.
The Company provides for an estimate of costs that may be incurred under its limited warranty at the time product revenue is recognized and establishes additional reserves for specifically identified product issues. These costs primarily include labor and materials, as necessary, associated with repair or replacement and are included in the Company's accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets in "other accrued liabilities." The primary factors that affect the Company’s warranty liability include the value and the number of shipped units and historical and anticipated rates of warranty claims. As these factors are impacted by actual experience and future expectations, the Company assesses the adequacy of its recorded warranty liabilities and adjusts the amounts as necessary.
Below is a table summarizing the activity related to the Company’s limited warranty liability for the three months ended December 31, 2022 and January 1, 2022 and January 2, 2021 (in thousands):

The 2022 Program commenced upon completion of the 2021 Program and was completed in fiscal 2022. During the three months ended January 2, 2021,1, 2022, the Company completed the 2019 Program by repurchasing 73,560repurchased 110,440 shares under this program for $5.3$10.2 million at an average price of $72.44$91.74 per share.
On August 13, 2020,18, 2022, the Board of Directors approved a share repurchase program under which the Company is authorized to repurchase up to $50.0 million of its common stock (the "2021 Program"). On November 18, 2020, the Board of Directors approved an additional $50.0 million in share repurchase authority under the existing 2021 Program such that there then existed a total of $100.0 million in share repurchase authority under the program. The 2021 Program commenced upon completion of the 2019 Program. During the three months ended January 2, 2021, the Company repurchased 233,511 shares under this program for $17.5 million at an average price of $74.70 per share.
On August 11, 2021, the Board of Directors approved a new share repurchase program that authorizes the Company to repurchase up to $50.0 million of its common stock (the "2022"2023 Program"). The 20222023 Program commenced upon completion of the 2021 Program. The 2022 Programbecame effective immediately and has no expiration. During the three months ended January 1,December 31, 2022, the Company repurchased 110,440115,723 shares under this program for $10.2$11.5 million at an average price of $91.74$99.12 per share. As of January 1,December 31, 2022, $36.7$35.0 million of authority remained under the 20222023 Program.
All shares repurchased under the aforementioned programs were recorded as treasury stock.
13. Trade Accounts Receivable Sale Programs
The Company has Master Accounts Receivable Purchase Agreements with MUFG Bank, New York Branch (formerly known as The Bank of Tokyo-Mitsubishi UFJ, Ltd.) (the "MUFG RPA"), HSBC Bank (China) Company Limited, Xiamen branch (the "HSBC RPA") and other unaffiliated financial institutions, under which the Company may elect to sell receivables; at a discount. All facilities are uncommitted facilities. The maximum facility amount under the MUFG RPA as of January 1, 2022 is $340.0 million. The maximum facility amount under the HSBC RPA as of January 1, 2022 is $60.0 million. The MUFG RPA will be automatically extended each year unless any party gives no less than 10 days prior notice that the agreement should not be extended. The terms of the HSBC RPA are generally consistent with the terms of the MUFG RPA previously discussed.
Transfers of receivables under the programs are accounted for as sales and, accordingly, receivables sold under the programs are excluded from accounts receivable on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets and are reflected as cash provided by operating activities on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. Proceeds from the transfer reflect the face value of the receivables less a discount. The sale discount is recorded within "Miscellaneous, net" in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income in the period of the sale. The Company continues servicing receivables sold and performing all accounts receivable administrative functions, and in exchange receives a servicing fee, under both the MUFG RPA and HSBC RPA. Servicing fees related to trade accounts receivable programs recognized during the three months ended December 31, 2022 and January 1, 2022 and January 2, 2021 were not material.
The Company sold $148.0$185.6 million and $198.4$148.0 million of trade accounts receivable under these programs, or their predecessors, during the three months ended December 31, 2022 and January 1, 2022, and January 2, 2021, respectively, in exchange for cash proceeds of $147.5$183.6 million and $197.8147.5 million, respectively. As of December 31, 2022 and January 1, 2022 and October 2, 2021, $151.0$196.8 million and $176.0$151.0 million,
respectively, of accounts receivables sold under trade accounts receivable programs and subject to servicing by the Company remained outstanding and had not yet been collected.
14. Revenue from Contracts with Customers
Significant Judgments
Revenue is recognized over time for arrangements with customers for which: (i) the Company's performance does not create an asset with an alternative use to the Company, and (ii) the Company has an enforceable right to payment, including reasonable profit margin, for performance completed to date. Revenue recognized over time is estimated based on costs incurred to date plus a reasonable profit margin. If either of the two conditions noted above are not met to recognize revenue over time, revenue is recognized following the transfer of control of such products to the customer, which typically occurs upon shipment or delivery depending on the terms of the underlying arrangement.
The Company recognizes revenue when a contract exists and when, or as, it satisfies a performance obligation by transferring control of a product or service to a customer. Contracts are accounted for when they have approval and commitment from both parties, the rights of the parties are identified, payment terms are identified, the contract has commercial substance and collectability of consideration is probable. A performance obligation is a promise in a contract to transfer a distinct good or service to the customer.
The Company generally enters into a master services arrangement that establishes the framework under which business will be conducted. These arrangements represent the master terms and conditions of the Company's services that apply to individual orders, but they do not commit the customer to work with, or to continue to work with, the Company nor do they obligate the customer to any specific volume or pricing of purchases. Moreover, these terms can be amended in appropriate situations.
Customer purchase orders are received for specific quantities with predominantly fixed pricing and delivery requirements. Thus, for the majority of our contracts, there is no guarantee of any revenue to the Company until a customer submits a purchase order. As a result, the Company generally considers its arrangement with a customer to be the combination of the master services arrangement and the purchase order. Most of the Company's arrangements with customers create a single performance obligation as the promise to transfer the individual manufactured product or service is capable of being distinct.
The Company’s performance obligations are satisfied over time as work progresses or at a point in time. A performance obligation is satisfied over time if the Company has an enforceable right to payment, including a reasonable profit margin. Determining if an enforceable right to payment includes a reasonable profit margin requires judgment and is assessed on a contract by contract basis.
Generally, there are no subjective customer acceptance requirements or further obligations related to goods or services provided; if such requirements or obligations exist, then a sale is recognized at the time when such requirements are completed and such obligations are fulfilled.
The Company does not allow for a general right of return. Net sales include amounts billed to customers for shipping and handling and out-of-pocket expenses. The corresponding shipping and handling costs and out-of-pocket expenses are included in cost of sales. Taxes assessed by a governmental authority that are both imposed on and concurrent with a specific revenue-producing transaction, that are collected by the Company from a customer, are excluded from net sales.
Contract Costs
For contracts requiring over time revenue recognition, the selection of the method to measure progress towards completion requires judgment and is based on the nature of the products or services to be provided. The Company uses a cost-based input measurement of progress because it best depicts the transfer of assets to the customer, which occurs as costs are incurred during the manufacturing process or as services are rendered. Under the cost-based measure of progress, the extent of progress towards completion is measured based on the costs incurred to date.
There were no other costs to obtain or fulfill customer contracts.

Contract Balances
The timing of revenue recognition, billings and cash collections results in billed accounts receivable, contract assets and deferred revenue on the Company’s accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.
Contract Assets: For performance obligations satisfied at a point in time, billing occurs subsequent to revenue recognition, at which point the customer has been billed and the resulting asset is recorded within accounts receivable. For performance obligations satisfied over time as work progresses, the Company has an unconditional right to payment, which results in the recognition of contract assets. The following table summarizes the activity in the Company's contract assets during the three months ended January 1,December 31, 2022 and January 2, 20211, 2022 (in thousands):
| | | Three Months Ended | | Three Months Ended |
| | January 1, 2022 | | January 2, 2021 | | December 31, 2022 | | January 1, 2022 |
Contract assets, beginning of period | Contract assets, beginning of period | | $ | 115,283 | | | $ | 113,946 | | Contract assets, beginning of period | | $ | 138,540 | | | $ | 115,283 | |
Revenue recognized during the period | Revenue recognized during the period | | 709,723 | | | 753,565 | | Revenue recognized during the period | | 884,099 | | | 709,723 | |

Contract assets, end of period | Contract assets, end of period | | $ | 105,450 | | | $ | 113,225 | | Contract assets, end of period | | $ | 119,016 | | | $ | 105,450 | |
Deferred Revenue: Deferred revenue is recorded when consideration is received from a customer prior to transferring goods or services to the customer under the terms of the contract, which is included in other accrued liabilities on the Condensed
Consolidated Balance Sheets. As of January 1,December 31, 2022 and October 2, 20211, 2022 the balance of advance payments from customers that remained in other accrued liabilities was $133.2$247.1 million and $101.1$298.8 million, respectively. The advance payment is not considered a significant financing component because it is used to meet working capital demands that can be higher in the early stages of a contract and to protect the company from the other party failing to adequately complete some or all of its obligations under the contract. Deferred revenue is recognized into revenue when all revenue recognition criteria are met. For performance obligations satisfied over time, recognition will occur as work progresses; otherwise deferred revenue will be recognized based upon shipping terms.
15. Restructuring and Impairment Charges
During the first quarter of fiscal 2022, the Company recorded $2.0 million of restructuringRestructuring and impairment charges primarily due to employee severance costs associated with a facility transition in our APAC region. These charges are recorded within restructuring and impairment charges on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income. Restructuring liabilities are recorded within other accrued liabilities on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.
During the first quarter of fiscal 2023, the Company did not incur any restructuring and impairment charges. During the first quarter of fiscal 2022, the Company recorded $2.0 million of restructuring and impairment charges primarily due to employee severance costs associated with a facility transition in the Company's APAC segment.
The Company recognized a tax benefit of $0.2 million related to restructuring and impairment charges infor the three months ended January 1, 2022.

COVID-19Market Pressures Update
We continue to monitor the global outbreak and spread of COVID-19 and take steps to mitigate the potential risks to us posed by its spread and related circumstances and impacts.
The health and safety of our employees is a top priority for us. We have progressively implemented measures to safeguard our employees from the COVID-19 infection and exposure and have made significant efforts to mitigate the effects of regulatory authority restrictions on our operations through a combination of adjustments in our shift patterns, flexible work arrangements, productivity improvements, facility enhancements to support social distancing and optimizing employee capability to work from home, if needed. These efforts will continue as requirements change, new risks are identified and infections impact us.
We have experienced labor shortages due to COVID-19 quarantines or workforce curtailments, particularly in Malaysia during fiscal 2021, as the virus spread. The spread and resurgence of the COVID-19 virus from new variants in jurisdictions we operate may make our ability to mitigate the impacts of the pandemic on our productivity more challenging.
We remain in close contact with our suppliers to understand the impacts of COVID-19 on their businesses and operations. Our suppliers may face challenges in maintaining an adequate workforce or securing materials from their own suppliers as a result of COVID-19. We have experienced, and expect to continue to experience during the remainder of fiscal 2022, an inability to procure certain components and materials on a timely basis due to worseningglobal supply chain shortages likely as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. We continue to take steps to validateconstraints. These constraints have impacted our suppliers’ ability to delivermeet customer demand and may inhibit our ability to us on time. However,capture the demand from our customers. The extended lead timeslead-times have required us to make additional investments in inventory to satisfy customer demand, which we expect to persist.
Worsening supply chain constraints have impacted our ability to meet customer demand, and as a result, negatively impacted revenue compared to expectations. The global supply chain constraints will limit our ability to captureOver the demand from our customers during fiscal 2022. We continue to maintain additional resources to help mitigate component constraint challenges andpast few quarters, the operating inefficiencies COVID-19 has created, but note these inefficiencies place additional burden on operating results.
The global supply chain constraints have led to inflation in manysome of the components we acquire, as well as labor and operating costs. We expect the increase in costs, including labor-related issues which have become more pronounced, to continue in the near future. We have been, and expect to continue to be, subject to such inflationary and general labor cost increases. While we have been largely able to mitigate the impacts of inflation through our contractual rights with customers on pricing, the pricing recoveries received may be dilutive to our operating margin. The inability to offset these costs in future periods or the impacts of continued inflation on end markets and our customers may affect our operating results, cash flows and inventory levels, which could increase as a result of higher component prices or the negative effects of inflation on customer end-market demand.
Customers within certain segments are working to better understand the impact of the Department of Commerce’s export controls restricting the People’s Republic of China’s access to advanced semiconductors, supercomputers, and semiconductor manufacturing equipment. We could continue to see demand volatility as they adjust their forecasts as a result of these restrictions.
Changes in tax laws or tax rates in the jurisdictions where we operate, including the potential passage of tax regulation changes such as the establishment of a global minimum tax could result in adverse tax consequences. During the first quarter of fiscal 2023, certain jurisdictions consented to implement a global minimum tax. We will continue to monitor these developments as each jurisdiction incorporates such changes into tax laws.
We believe we are positioned with a strongour balance sheet is positioned to facesupport the potential future challenges presented by COVID-19.the macro-economic pressures we are facing. As of the first quarter of fiscal 2022,2023, cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash were $218$248 million, while debt, finance lease obligations and other financing were $338$516 million. Borrowings under our Credit Facility as of January 1,December 31, 2022 were $140$320 million, leaving $210$180 million of our revolving commitment of $350$500 million available for use as of January 1, 2022 as well as the ability to expand our revolving commitment to $600$750 million upon mutual agreement with the bank. Interest expense could increase above current levels due to increased borrowing under our Credit Facility associated with working capital investments along with the impact of rising interest rates. Refer to Note 3, "Debt, Finance Lease Obligations and Other Financing Obligations," in Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and "Management’s Discussion and Analysis Liquidity and Capital Resources" in Part I, Item 2 for further information.
See "Risk Factors" contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended October 2, 2021, "Our financial condition and results of operations may be materially adversely affected by the ongoing coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak" and "We experience component shortages, price fluctuations and supplier quality concerns."

Cost of sales is comprised primarily of material and component costs, labor costs and overhead. For the three months ended December 31, 2022 and January 1, 2022, and January 2, 2021, approximately 89% to 91% of the total cost of sales was variable in nature and fluctuated with sales volumes. Approximately 87% to 88% of these costs were related to material and component costs.
As compared to the three months ended January 2, 2021,1, 2022, the decreaseincrease in cost of sales for the three months ended January 1,December 31, 2022 was primarily driven by the decreaseincrease in net sales.

Other expense. Other expense for the three months ended January 1,December 31, 2022 decreased $1.5 increased $4.2 million as compared to the three months ended January 2, 2021.1, 2022. The decreaseincrease in other expense for the three months ended December 31, 2022 was primarily due to the decreaseincrease in interest expense of $1.0$3.8 million and a decreasefactoring fees of $0.5 million in foreign exchange losses.$1.5 million.
Income taxes. Income tax expense for the three months ended January 1,December 31, 2022 was $3.4$7.2 million compared to $5.4$3.4 million for the three months ended January 2, 2021.1, 2022. The decreaseincrease is primarily due to a decreasean increase in pre-tax book income before taxes as well as additional discrete tax benefits of $0.6 million, partially offset by aand change in the geographic distribution of worldwide earnings.pre-tax book income.
Our annual effective tax rate varies from the U.S. statutory rate of 21.0% primarily due to the geographic distribution of worldwide earnings as well as a tax holiday granted to a subsidiary located in the APAC segment where we derive a significant portion of our earnings. Our effective tax rate may also be impacted by disputes with taxing authorities, tax planning activities, adjustments to uncertain tax positions and changes in valuation allowances.

Diluted earnings per share decreasedincreased to $1.49 for the three months ended December 31, 2022 from $0.82 for the three months ended January 1, 2022, from $1.23 for the three months ended January 2, 2021 primarily as a result of decreasedincreased net income due to the factors previously discussed above, partially offset byas well as a reduction in diluted shares outstanding due to repurchase activity under our share repurchase plans.
Return on Invested Capital ("ROIC") and economic return. We use a financial model that is aligned with our business strategy and includes aan ROIC goal of 15%. which would exceed our weighted average cost of capital ("WACC") and represent positive economic return. Economic return is the amount our ROIC exceeds our WACC.
Non-GAAP financial measures, including ROIC and economic return, are used for internal management goals and decision making because such measures provide management and investors additional insight into financial performance. In particular, we provide ROIC and economic return because we believe they offer insight into the metrics that are driving management decisions because wedecisions. We view ROIC and economic return as important measures in evaluating the efficiency and effectiveness of our long-term capital requirements.investments. We also use ROIC as a performance criteria in determining certain elements of compensation and certain compensation incentives are based onas well as economic return performance.
We define ROIC as tax-effected operating income before restructuring and other special items divided by average invested capital over a rolling two-quarter period for the first quarter. Invested capital is defined as equity plus debt and operating lease
liabilities, less cash and cash equivalents. Other companies may not define or calculate ROIC in the same way. ROIC and other non-GAAP financial measures should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for, measures of our financial performance prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("U.S. GAAP"). We define economic return as ROIC less our weighted average cost of capital ("WACC").
We review our internal calculation of WACC annually. Our WACC is 9.0% for fiscal 2023 as compared to 9.3% for fiscal 2022 as compared to 8.1% for fiscal 2021.2022. By exercising discipline to generate ROIC in excess of our WACC, our goal is to create value for our shareholders. For the three months ended December 31, 2022, ROIC of 13.8% reflects an economic return of 4.8%, based on our weighted average cost of capital of 9.0%. For the three months ended January 1, 2022, ROIC of 10.0% reflects an economic return of 0.7%, based on our weighted average cost of capital of 9.3%. For the three months ended January 2, 2021, ROIC of 16.3% reflects an economic return of 8.2%, based on our weighted average cost of capital of 8.1% for that fiscal year.
For a reconciliation of ROIC, economic return and adjusted operating income (tax effected)(tax-effected) to our financial statements that were prepared using U.S. GAAP, see Exhibit 99.1 to this quarterly report on Form 10-Q, which exhibit is incorporated herein by reference.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash were $218.4$247.9 million as of January 1,December 31, 2022, as compared to $270.5$275.5 million as of October 2, 2021.1, 2022.
As of January 1,December 31, 2022, 90.4%87% of our cash and cash equivalents balance was held outside of the U.S. by our foreign subsidiaries. Currently, we believe that our cash balance, together with cash available under our Credit Facility, will be sufficient to meet our liquidity needs and potential share repurchases, if any, for the next twelve months and for the foreseeable future.
Our future cash flows from operating activities will be reduced by $53.6$47.7 million due to cash payments for U.S. federal taxes on the deemed repatriation of undistributed foreign earnings that are payable over an eight yeareight-year period that began in fiscal 2019 with the first payment.

Operating Activities. Cash flows used byin operating activities were $48.8 million for the three months ended December 31, 2022, as compared to cash flows used in operating activities of $89.0 million for the three months ended January 1, 2022, as compared to cash flows provided by operating activities of $6.7 million for the three months ended January 2, 2021.2022.

Annualized cash cycle | | 106 | | 103 |
We calculate days in accounts receivable and contract assets as each balance sheet item for the respective quarter divided by annualized sales for the respective quarter by day. We calculate days in inventory, accounts payable and cash deposits as each balance sheet line item for the respective quarter divided by annualized cost of sales for the respective quarter by day. We calculate annualized cash cycle as the sum of days in accounts receivable, days in contract assets and days in inventory, less days in accounts payable and days in cash deposits.
As of January 1,December 31, 2022, annualized cash cycle days increased twenty-threethree days compared to January 2, 20211, 2022 due to the following:
Days in accounts receivable for the three months ended January 1,December 31, 2022 increased thirteendecreased five days compared to the three months ended January 2, 2021.1, 2022. The increasedecrease is primarily attributable to the timing of customer shipments and payments, mix of customer payment terms and a decreasean increase in factored receivables.
Days in contract assets for the three months ended January 1,December 31, 2022 remained flatdecreased two days compared to the three months ended January 2, 2021.1, 2022. The decrease is primarily attributable to increased net sales and an increase in advance payments received from customers with arrangements requiring revenue to be recognized over time as products are produced.
Days in inventory for the three months ended January 1,December 31, 2022 increased fifty-twosix days compared to the three months ended January 2, 2021.1, 2022. The increase is primarily attributable to increased inventory levels to support the ramp of customer programs,programs. Inventory levels also increased due to customer demand volatility as well as the decrease in net sales. In addition, there are longer lead times for certain components as a result of supply chain constraints heightened by the COVID-19 outbreak increasing our inventory level as we maintain components for remainderwhich have led to inflation in some of the product.components we acquire.
Days in accounts payable for the three months ended January 1,December 31, 2022 increased twenty-eightdecreased eighteen days compared to the three months ended January 2, 2021.1, 2022.

Days in cash deposits for the three months ended January 1,December 31, 2022 increased fourteen days compared to the three months ended January 2, 2021.1, 2022. The increase was primarily attributable to significant deposits received from four customers to cover certain increasing inventory balances.
Free Cash Flow. We define free cash flow ("FCF"), a non-GAAP financial measure, as cash flow (used in) provided byused in operations less capital expenditures. FCF was $(71.9) million for the three months ended December 31, 2022 compared to $(122.2) million for the three months ended January 1, 2022, an improvement of $50.3 million. The improvement in FCF was primarily due to less of a working capital investment in inventory to support our customers in the first quarter of fiscal 2023 as compared to $(9.2) million for the three months ended January 2, 2021, a decreasefirst quarter of $113.0 million.fiscal 2022.
Non-GAAP financial measures, including FCF, are used for internal management assessments because such measures provide additional insight to investors into ongoing financial performance. In particular, we provide FCF because we believe it offers insight into the metrics that are driving management decisions. We view FCF as an important financial metric as it demonstrates our ability to generate cash and can allow us to pursue opportunities that enhance shareholder value. FCF is a non-GAAP financial measure that should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for, measures of our financial performance prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP.
A reconciliation of FCF to our financial statements that were prepared using U.S. GAAP as follows (in millions):

Investing Activities. Cash flows used in investing activities were $21.6 million for the three months ended December 31, 2022 compared to $33.4 million for the three months ended January 1, 2022 compared to $15.8 million for the three months ended January 2, 2021.2022. The increasedecrease in cash used in investing activities was due to a $17.4$10.2 million increasedecrease in capital expenditures, primarily due to our manufacturing footprint expansion in Bangkok, Thailand.
We estimate funded capital expenditures for fiscal 2022 will be approximately $100.0 million to $120.0 million, of which $33.2 million was utilized throughas the first three months of fiscal 2022. The remaining fiscal 2022 capital expenditures are anticipated to be used primarily for our manufacturing footprint expansion in Bangkok, Thailand andhas been substantially completed.
We estimate capital expenditures for fiscal 2023 will be approximately $110.0 million to $130.0 million to support new program ramps and replace older equipment.
This estimate does not contemplate any site expansions.Financing Activities. Cash flows provided by financing activities were $39.4 million for the three months ended December 31, 2022 compared to cash flows provided by financing activities of $70.0 million for the three months ended January 1, 2022 compared to cash flows used in financing activities of $24.8 million for the three months ended January 2, 2021.2022. The increasedecrease was primarily attributable to an increase of $83.6 million in netlower borrowings on the Credit Facility and a decreasecredit facility in the first quarter of $12.6fiscal 2023 of $57.0 million in cash usedas compared to repurchase our common stock.the first quarter of fiscal 2022 of $85.0 million.
On August 20, 2019, the Board of Directors approved a share repurchase program under which we were authorized to repurchase $50.0 million of our common stock (the "2019 Program"). During the three months ended January 2,11, 2021, we completed the 2019 Program by repurchasing 73,560 shares under this program for $5.3 million at an average price of $72.44 per share.
On August 13, 2020, the Board of Directors approved a share repurchase program under which we were authorized to repurchase up to $50.0 million of our common stock (the "2021 Program"). On November 18, 2020, the Board of Directors approved an additional $50.0 million in share repurchase authority under the existing 2021 Program such that there then existed a total of $100.0 million in share repurchase authority under the program. The 2021 program commenced upon completion of the 2019 Program. During the three months ended January 2, 2021, we repurchased 233,511 shares under this program for $17.5 million at an average price of $74.70 per share.
On August 11, 2021, the Board of Directors approved a new share repurchase program under which we were authorized to repurchase up to $50.0 million of its common stock (the "2022 Program"). The 2022 Program commenced upon completion of the 2021 Program. The 2022 Program has no expiration.and was completed in fiscal 2022. During the three months ended January 1, 2022, we repurchased 110,440 shares under this program for $10.2 million at an average price of $91.74 per share.
On August 18, 2022, the Board of Directors approved a share repurchase program under which we are authorized to repurchase up to $50.0 million of our common stock (the "2023 Program"). The 2023 Program became effective immediately and has no expiration. During the three months ended December 31, 2022, we repurchased 115,723 shares under this program for $11.5 million at an average price of $99.12 per share. As of January 1,December 31, 2022, $36.7$35.0 million of authority remained under the 20222023 Program.
All shares repurchased under the aforementioned programs were recorded as treasury stock.
On June 15, 2018, we entered into a Note Purchase Agreement (the “2018 NPA”) pursuant to which we issued an aggregate of $150.0 million in principal amount of unsecured senior notes, consisting of $100.0 million in principal amount 4.05% Series A Senior Notes, due on June 15, 2025, and $50.0 million in principal amount of 4.22% Series B Senior Notes, due on June 15, 2028 (collectively, the “2018 Notes”), in a private placement. The 2018 NPA includes customary operational and financial covenants with which we are required to comply, including, among others, maintenance of certain financial ratios such as a total leverage ratio and a minimum interest coverage ratio. The 2018 Notes may be prepaid in whole or in part at any time, subject to payment of a make-whole amount; interest on the 2018 Notes is payable semiannually. As of January 1, 2022, we were in compliance with the covenants under the 2018 NPA.
On May 15, 2019, we refinanced our then-existing senior unsecured revolving credit facility by entering into a new five-year senior unsecured revolving credit facility (referred to as the "Credit Facility"), which expanded the maximum commitment from $300.0 million to $350.0 million and extended the maturity from July 5, 2021 to May 15, 2024. The maximum commitment under the Credit Facility may be further increased to $600.0 million, generally by mutual agreement of the lenders and us, subject to certain customary conditions. During fiscal 2022, the highest daily borrowing was $186.0 million; the average daily borrowings were $117.9 million. We borrowed $181.0 million and repaid $96.0 million of revolving borrowings ("revolving commitment") under the Credit Facility during fiscal 2022. As of January 1, 2022, we were in compliance with all financial covenants relating to the Credit Facility, which are generally consistent with those in the 2018 NPA discussed above. We are required to pay a commitment fee on the daily unused revolving commitment based on our leverage ratio; the fee was 0.125% as of January 1, 2022.
To further ensure our ability to meet our working capital and fixed capital requirements, on April 29, 2020, we entered into Amendment No. 1 to the Credit Facility (the "Amendment") in response to the COVID-19 outbreak, which amended the Credit Facility, dated as of May 15, 2019. The Amendment modified certain provisions of the Credit Facility to, among other things, provide Term Loans for $138.0 million. Term Loans borrowed under the new facility were funded in a single draw on May 4, 2020 and were scheduled to mature on April 28, 2021. On January 29, 2021, we terminated the Term Loans through repayment of the $138.0 million outstanding using borrowings from the revolving commitment under the Credit Facility. Outstanding Term Loans bore interest, at our option, at a eurocurrency rate (subject to a floor of 1.0%) plus a margin of 1.75% per annum or at a base rate (subject to a floor of 2.0%) plus a margin of 0.75% per annum.
The Credit Facility and the 2018 NPA allow for the future payment of cash dividends or the repurchase of shares provided that no event of default (including any failure to comply with a financial covenant) exists at the time of, or would be caused by, the dividend payment or the share repurchases. We have not paid cash dividends in the past. However, we evaluate from time to time potential uses of excess cash, which in the future may include share repurchases above those already authorized, a special dividend or recurring dividends.
We have Master Accounts Receivable Purchase Agreements with MUFG Bank, New York Branch (formerly known as The Bank of Tokyo-Mitsubishi UFJ, Ltd.) (the "MUFG RPA"), HSBC Bank (China) Company Limited, Xiamen branch (the "HSBC RPA") and other unaffiliated financial institutions, under which we may elect to sell receivables, at a discount, on an ongoing basis.discount. These facilities are uncommitted facilities. The maximum facility amount under the MUFG RPA as of January 1,December 31, 2022 iswas $340.0 million. The maximum facility amount under the HSBC RPA as of January 1,December 31, 2022 iswas $60.0 million. The MUFG RPA will be automatically extended each year unless any party gives no less than 10 days prior notice that the agreement should not be extended. The terms of the HSBC RPA are generally consistent with the terms of the MUFG RPA previously discussed.
We sold $148.0$185.6 million and $198.4$148.0 million of trade accounts receivable under these programs, or their predecessors, during the three months ended January 1,December 31, 2022 and January 2, 2021,1, 2022, respectively, in exchange for cash proceeds of $147.5$183.6 million and $197.8$147.5 million, respectively. As of December 31, 2022 and January 1, 2022, and October 2, 2021, $151.0$196.8 million and $176.0$151.0 million, respectively, of accounts receivables sold under trade accounts receivable programs and subject to servicing by us remained outstanding and had not yet been collected.
In all cases, the sale discount was recorded within "Miscellaneous, net" in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income in the period of the sale. For further information regarding the receivable sale programs, see Note 13, "Trade Accounts Receivable Sale Programs," in Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
Based on current expectations, we believe that our projected cash flows provided by operations, available cash and cash equivalents, our leasing capabilities and potential borrowings under our 5-year senior unsecured revolving credit facility (referred to as the Credit Facility and"Credit Facility"), including our leasing capabilitiesability to expand our revolving commitment, should be sufficient to meet our working capital and fixed capital requirements, as well as execution upon our share repurchase authorizations as management deems appropriate, for the next twelve months. We believe our balance sheet is positioned to support the potential future challenges presented by COVID-19,macro-economic factors including increased working capital requirements associated with longer lead timelead-times for components, increased component and labor costs, and operating inefficiencies due to supply chain constraints or workplace safety restrictions.constraints. As of the end of the first quarter of fiscal 2022,2023, cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash were $218$247.9 million, while debt, finance lease obligations and other financing were $338$516.3 million. We have significant funding availability through our Credit Facility, should future needs arise. If our future financing needs increase, including to support additional capital expenditures or investments in the growth of our business, then we may need to arrange additional debt or equity financing. Accordingly, we evaluate and consider from time to time various financing alternatives to supplement our financial resources. However, we cannot be assured that we will be able to make any such arrangements on acceptable terms.terms or at all.
DISCLOSURE ABOUT CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIESESTIMATES
Our critical accounting policies are disclosed in our 20212022 Annual Report on Form 10-K. During the first quarter of fiscal 2022,2023, there were no material changes.
NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
See Note 1, "Basis of Presentation," in Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements regarding recent accounting pronouncements.
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
We are exposedThere were no material changes in our exposure to market risk from changes in foreign exchange and interest rates. We selectively use financial instruments to reduce such risks. We do not use derivative financial instruments for speculative purposes.rates from those disclosed in our 2022 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Foreign Currency Risk
Our international operations create potential foreign exchange risk. Our policy is to selectively hedge our foreign currency denominated transactions in a manner that partially offsets the effects of changes in foreign currency exchange rates. We typically use foreign currency contracts to hedge only those currency exposures associated with certain assets and liabilities denominated in non-functional currencies. Corresponding gains and losses on the underlying transaction generally offset the gains and losses on these foreign currency hedges. We cannot predict changes in currency rates, nor the degree to which we will be able to manage the impacts of currency exchange rate changes, including the impacts on currency exchange rates related to the COVID-19 outbreak.changes. Such changes could have a material effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.
Our percentages of transactions denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar for the indicated periods were as follows:
| | | Three Months Ended | | Three Months Ended |
| | | January 1, 2022 | | January 2, 2021 | | | December 31, 2022 | | January 1, 2022 |
Net Sales | Net Sales | | 10% | | 10% | Net Sales | | 7% | | 10% |
Total Costs | Total Costs | | 18% | | 16% | Total Costs | | 15% | | 18% |
We have evaluated the potential foreign currency exchange rate risk on transactions denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar for the periods presented above. Based on our overall currency exposure, as of January 1,December 31, 2022, a 10.0% change in the value of the U.S. dollar relative to our other transactional currencies would not have a material effect on our financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.
Interest Rate Risk
We have financial instruments, including cash equivalents and debt, which are sensitive to changes in interest rates. The primary objective of our investment activities is to preserve principal, while maximizing yields without significantly increasing market risk. To achieve this, we limit the amount of principal exposure to any one issuer. We cannot predict changes in interest rates, including the impacts on interest rates related to the COVID-19 outbreak.
As of January 1,December 31, 2022, our only material interest rate risk iswas associated with our Credit Facility. Revolving commitmentsBorrowings under the Credit Facility bear interest, at ourthe Company's option, at a eurocurrency or base rate(a)(1) for borrowings denominated in U.S. dollars, the Term Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR"), (2) for borrowings denominated in pounds sterling, the Daily Simple Risk-Free Rate, plus, in each case of (a)(1) and (2), 10 basis points, (b) for borrowings denominated in euros, the EURIBOR Rate plus a statutory reserve rate, or (c) an Alternate Base Rate equal to the highest of (i) 100 basis points per annum, (ii) the prime rate last quoted by The Wall Street Journal (or, if not quoted, as otherwise provided in the Credit Facility), (iii) the greater of the federal funds effective rate and the overnight bank funding rate in effect on such day plus, in each case, 50 basis points per annum (or, if neither are available, as otherwise provided in the Credit Facility), and (iv) Term SOFR for a one month interest period on such day plus 110 basis points, plus, in each case of (a), (b), and (c), an applicable interest rate margin based on our then-current leverage ratio (as definedthe Company's then current consolidated total indebtedness (minus certain unrestricted cash and cash equivalents in the Credit Facility).an amount not to exceed $100 million) to consolidated EBITDA. As of January 1,December 31, 2022, the borrowing rate under the Credit Facility was LIBORSOFR plus 1.10%. Borrowings under the 2018 NPA are based on a fixed interest rate, thus mitigating much of our interest rate risk. Based on our overall interest rate exposure, as of January 1,December 31, 2022, a 10.0% change in interest rates would not have a material effect on our financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.
